The Carolina Panthers waived Baker Mayfield, who reportedly asked for his release, so should the 49ers grab the 2017 Heisman Trophy winner with Jimmy Garoppolo out for the season?
At this stage, nobody is taking Purdy’s job.
“He doesn't have to do too much,” 49ers linebacker Fred Warner said. “He has so many weapons on that side of the ball to just get the ball to, and his job is just to protect the football. We have a really good offense. He is in the best position possible.” Should the 49ers be interested? Absolutely. But will they get an opportunity to add Mayfield to their roster? Doubtful.
Only five teams in the NFL have a record better than the 49ers, and it seems as if there will be multiple waiver claims on Mayfield. The claiming team with the worse record will get Mayfield. The 49ers are far down the list.Garoppolo will be placed on injured reserve, and that would open a roster spot to add a player, such as Mayfield.After all, Mayfield is affordable with a salary of $1.35 million for the remainder of the season. If it does not work out, they could release him at any time.
